Our People
Children and youth from grades 3-12, from the Long Island Area and beyond, are invited to serve as campers working toward creating a UU community for one week in August each year. Adults from Unitarian Universalist Congregations are asked to serve as staff. Each community member is asked to sign a Covenant, code of attitude and behavior, by which to live during our week together. We can support approximately 125 campers and a staff of approximately 45 adults including a minister.
Our camp is planned and governed by a Council of 5 members hired for this purpose by the LIAC (Long Island Area Council). In all of our programs, worship and activities we try to create a special intentional community based on caring and respect. Our staff members are chosen very carefully; many are returning staff. We support a Youth Spirit Committee and a youth leadership component. Staff live with campers, providing care, support and interesting programming while focusing on respect, cooperation, trust and communication as they interact within the community.
